โฆ Synopsis
Let G be a permutation group on a set โฆ such that G has no fixed points in โฆ. If, for a given positive integer m, the cardinalities |ฮ g \ฮ | is at most m for all g โ G and ฮ โ โฆ, then G is said to have bounded movement m on โฆ. When the maximum of |ฮ g \ฮ | over all g โ G and ฮ โ โฆ is equal to m, we say G has bounded movement equal to m. We will show that if G has bounded movement equal to m and p ( 5) is the least odd prime dividing |G|, then it has at most 2m -(p -1) nontrivial orbits. Moreover the groups G attaining the maximum bound will be classified.

## Abstract The number of independent vertex subsets is a graph parameter that is, apart from its purely mathematical importance, of interest in mathematical chemistry. In particular, the problem of maximizing or minimizing the number of independent vertex subsets within a given class of graphs has
Let k be an imaginary quadratic number field with C k, 2 , the 2-Sylow subgroup of its ideal class group, isomorphic to Zร2Z\_Zร2Z\_Zร2Z. By the use of various versions of the Kuroda class number formula, we improve significantly upon our previous lower bound for |C k 1 , 2 | , the 2-class number of
